[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 06/14] efi: Add support for a hello world test program

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Mon Nov 7 16:47:08 CET 2016


It is useful to have a basic sanity check for EFI loader support. Add a
'bootefi hello' command which loads HelloWord.efi and runs it under U-Boot.

 Simple use cases like "Plug this SD card into my ARM device and it just
 boots into grub which boots into Linux", work very well.

+Running HelloWord.efi
+---------------------
+
+You can run a simple 'hello world' EFI program in U-Boot. This is not
+distributed in the U-Boot source, but you can download this patch:
+
+   https://goo.gl/vihiZS
+
+Then apply it, e.g.:
+
+   $ git am ~/Downloads/0001-efi-Add-test-program-binaries.patch
+
+and enable the option CONFIG_CMD_BOOTEFI_HELLO
+
+Then you can boot into U-Boot and type:
+
+   > bootefi hello
+
+The 'hello world EFI' program will then run, print a message and exit.

+
